We had apps and drinks before a show. Our waitress was very good with her suggestions and giving us information about the pace of how the tapas would come out. We will definitely go back

The food is delicious ! Everything is fresh and prepared with care. We found BackDeck by chance but have returned twice since. Also, our server, Ricardo, made the experience that much better with his happy personality, not to mention the excellent service.

The ambiance at Chops DTX was sexy and swanky. I loved the music and atmosphere and the food and service was equally great. The bone marrow was outstanding but, if you put it on their frites... mind-blowing. Really great dinner and a perfect pre-theatre option.
